Boy meets girl. One of them does that little something that catches the eye of the other. Smiles are exchanged. Small talk is made. Then it happens. The flutter inside that makes them think...he/she just might be the one! Then the first date. Life and laughs. The first kiss. Then those three words are spoken- I love you. The relationship grows and then those four words are spoken- "Will you marry me?" She said,"yes!" There's celebration, an engagement period, wedding planning, then finally...the Wedding Day! The day two individuals selflessly give themselves to each other; promise to love and to cherish their soul mate, best friend, the love of their life; the day two become one.
We are 18 days away. The RSVP list is in. We have our final tasting tomorrow. There are only a few more things on my "To Do list" (for now anyway). We wait with great anticipation for the blessing of the day; to celebrate with our dearest friends as we witness this magical moment. You can be certain we are and we will praise God for all that He has done.
You would think this is the down time everyone talks about. Not for me. It's time to pull up my boot straps and find a venue and wedding date for Holly and Caleb. I spent the day yesterday calling all the venues on her list. Today I've made a few appointments. Tomorrow, Holly and I will go look for ourselves, with hopes of finding the place so we have the date. Holly's dream wedding looks much different than Lindsey's. It will not be as easy as "let's do it again!" Of course not! Holly's wedding will be a very different style, a lot of personal touches and for those who know Holly...Vintage Chic is the look she hopes to achieve. This can be difficult in the Big City of Houston, Texas but...we're going to make it happen and have fun doing so! Wow! I can hardly wait to see- wedding number 2.
If you are a praying person, (and I hope that you are), pray for God's provision, strength and blessing on our family. And if you are planning a wedding or hoping for one...may the Lord bless you more than you can imagine! Ephesians 3:20.
Much Joy!
Mother of the Bride(s)
